Today, we talk about the importance of owning your voice and expressing yourself authentically, even if you're not the loudest person in the room. It's not always about being the most visible or vocal person. It's important to remember that the power of your voice is in the words we choose to express and how we select them.

Today, we're talking about how to view your life as a unique work of art, shaped by your experiences. Instead of striving for perfection, I encourage you to embrace natural, unaltered moments to create a masterpiece. Just like creating art, living life is a fluid and open process that's open to interpretation.

We discuss the importance of being present in the moment and enjoying the journey of life. It's crucial to focus on self-awareness and growth to become the person we want to be, rather than solely focusing on reaching a destination. Societal pressure can make it difficult to accept that we are not yet who we have the potential to be, but it takes time and awareness to reach our full potential.

We are proud to produce this podcast at Mayzie Media, a women-led podcast production company.
